Hello everybody, This is the first issue from our new location in Enschede. Ofcourse in this mag everything about the new "Straight between the eyes" album and an extended interview with Ritchie Blackmore. Also the results of our own pop-poll. We finally can tell you the plans Rainbow made for the rest of the year. On this moment they're touring the States and Canada. At the end of this month the band will pop over to Europe to play two festivals in Germany (there's an article further on) and then get back to finish the tour in the States. At the end of the summer they'll be heading for Japan. At the end of the year (October-November) they come over to Europe and a concert overhere will also be in that period. English fans won't see the band in their country in action at all. There are plans for a live album that should be released in 1983. RAINBOW 2 X GERMANY IN MAY Unexpectedly fanclan-member Martin Meuffels from Einighausen told me that Rainbow was going to do two shows in May in Germany. Within the framework of the program ROCKPOP there'll be on Fridaynight 28 May a hardrock night, which will be aired as an overview rockshow on German tv some time later. The line-up looks like a repeat of MONSTERS OF ROCK 1980. Believe your eyes! |

The festival will start at 6 o'clock in the Westfalenhalle in Dortmund. Point Blank could be the musical surprise, on their LP "The hard way" is a live-version of Purple's "Highway star"! The next day, Saturday 29 May, there's an open-air festival in Würzburg, and Rainbow is booked as top of the bill. We still don't have more information about this festival. Ofcourse I'll plan to go to both the concerts. There will be a full review in the next issue then. RUMOURS - FACTS The hot-line hardly stand still the last few months. There were again and again wild rumours. Some became a fact, others proved to be nothing more or less than a rumour. Especially Whitesnake was the subject. David C. should have sacked the whole band, because 'they were too old'. He was going to join Michael Schenker. The band should have put David aside. There were stories that David should make a move to Bad Company. Micky Moody has left Whitesnake and won't be replaced. This change has delayed the release of the new album heavily. Coverdale did an audition with Michael Schenker, showed his face and could left again. Hopefully Jon Lord will be more involved now in the group sound. 
Graham Bonnet tried in the autumn 1981 vehemently to get a band off the ground, but he failed. In the mean time it's known all around that Graham got the job in the Michael Schenker Group. MSG is now as a four-piece in the studio doing their new album, that is due for September.Like told in the last issue, Don Airey has joined for one US tour Ozzy Osbourne. We all heard the news that during a day off their guitarplayer Randy Rhoads was killed in a plane crash (RIP) and immediately replaced by ex-Gillan guitarist Bernie Torme. Bernie just put together a new band, but that'll be put on ice for a while. That band is a trio named Electric Gypsies. We don't know how it's going with Don's solo-album now. Although Rainbow was in Canada, there still were two rumours, that turned out to be indeed only rumours. Rainbow should have recorded Gillan's "Higher en higher". Wrong! Roger Glover was not the producer of the new album. Again wrong! Although it's interesting to spot these rumours (where do they come from?), I prefer to stick to the facts. HOT NEWS The concert of RAINBOW on the festival on 28 May in Dortmund became uncertain all of a sudden, when there was the news that Bobby Rondinelli was fired two days before the start of the US Tour. It became very thrilling if they would or wouldn't play Dortmund. Polydor told the concert WILL go on, but it's not sure who the drummer will be. At the same moment there was the news that Cozy Powell has tender his resignation with Michael Schenker. The coincidence of these two facts is ground for new speculations. So everyone's wondering: is Cozy returning to Rainbow? Personally I don't think this is gonna happen but as a publicity stunt it will be very successful. We'll see in Dortmund who will be the man behind the drumkit. R.B. - 82 INTERVIEW Because Blackmore rarely do interviews and the group only late this year (expectation: November/December) will come over to Europe, we can use code-figures when Ritchie finally does an interview, so it's: RB-82. Ritchie did this interview with KERRANG, that's a part of the SOUNDS-concern. This interview was very long and we edited it a bit.
GILLAN IN ARNHEIM The last week of January was for me a hectic week. That week the last issue came out, I started to move houses and Gillan was in Holland. Because I was that busy, I didn't notice that the Gillan show in Den Bosch got cancelled and the gig in Arnheim was moved to a day later. Just when I was ready to leave a fanclan member told me it was the next day Gillan would play the Arnheim show. Anyway, that Wednesdaynight 27 January I was in the Stokvishal. 
I got the impression that half the audience came to see the support act Tygers Of Pan Tang. I can keep it short about the Tygers. I listened to all their albums before the show, but the concert was one big mash, little dynamics, in both tempo and volume. They play pure heavy metal and it just wasn't my cup of tea. It was loud from start to finish and the headbangers loved every minute of it. A quarter past ten we got the tape with synthesizer tones of Towns ("Second night"). It was nine years ago since I saw Gillan (on 28 January 1973 Purple did the disastrous concert in the Amsterdam RAI) the first time and already 3½ years ago since I saw him in England (see the first issue), so I was very curious to see this band.They hit it off with "Unchain your brain", still the opener. They played it fast and without faults. Most people seemed to be more interested in new man Janick Gers than in Ian Gillan. Ian was in a good mood, whistling between his teeth a lot. they continued with "Hadely bop bop". Also "Bite the bullit", went like hot cakes. Too early in the show we got the highlights of the show "No laughing in heaven". Ian sang this song just marvellous, dramatically like a man who wanna go desperately to heaven. "Trouble" is an old classic and Ian loves it, still I think it's an unnecessary song. Then they got into "Born to kill", nicely introduced by Colin Towns. In this song four 'backing vocals' came on stage (with Rainbow braces!!!). I don't know where it was good for, you couldn't hear them. But Ian was enjoying himself. The song went over in "M.A.D.", with very good solowork of Gers and at the end made the switch to "Vengeance", that wasn't done too well. "On the rocks" was introduced again by Towns, and hear we also got some bad notes. Gers changed his guitar and started to do all kinda tricks, just like he wanted to show everyone that you can watch for twelve and a half guilders to a cheap Blackmore-imitation. He imitated just like RB some classical excerpts and even "Hit the road Jack" before starting the inevitable "Smoke on the water", in which the tame crowd (did they ever heard the Gillan songs before or did they only came to see the famous ex-Purple singer play live) finally got excited, because they knew at least this song. 
A quarter past eleven the show was over, although we got some extra like a short drumsolo and "New Orleans". Somebody in the crowd threw an empty can in the direction of bassman McCoy, he chucked his bass on a synthesizer and took an imminent pose like he was saying 'get your arse overhere if you got the nerve'.McCoy is still a capable bassist, together with Mick Underwood he's good for a solid base. Colin Towns is for Ian the perfect man on keyboards. Ian himself, now 36 years old, is still the best singer in the history of rock. His reach is still the same when he made his debut with Purple. However, Janick Gers is another story. Sometimes Bernie Torme was blamed to look a lot like Blackmore, Gers gives me the impression that he thinks he is Blackmore. From start to finish he only did things I've seen so many times in the original version. Gers doesn't do anything else than a perfect imitation of Ritchie. There's nothing personal in his guitar playing. With your eyes closed, you would bet RB was on stage, but it's Janick, altho you can't hear it. He's a fine guitarist, but lacks his own style. I can't understand Kees Baars rated him as the superguitarist of the eighties. Gers is nothing else than the imitator of the man who put his mark down on the English hardrock in the seventies. Or was this the intention of Ian himself? FANCLAN POLL 1981 AND HERE ARE THE RESULTS!! Not less than 106 members send in the poll form. Each catagory you could fill out 3 names and 6 points.

RECORD TALK FANDANGO CADILLAC RCA AFL 1-3591 (US import) 
In the October-issue last year you could read the review of the LP "One Night Stand" (RCA AFL 1-3245) of Joe Lynn Turner's old band from 1979. In the mean time I got my hands on the last album of Fandango from 1980. There are some changes in the line-up now.Drummer Lou Mondelli is replace by Abe Speller, while second keyboardsman Dennis Larue on this album only is present as writer and arranger but don't play on the album. Along Joe, on vocals and guitar, we hear the man with the striking name Rick Blakemore (guitar), bassist Bob Danyls, keyboardplayer Larry Dawson and percussionist Santos. Nine pieces are on this album, produced by Ed Newmark (manager) and Warren Schatz, and recorded in the Secret Sound Studio in New York. The opener is "Blame it on the night", a good rocksong with a catchy chorus. In "Rock and roll you" we hear using Joe the same tone of voice as in Rainbow songs, while "Hypnotized" would have suit to be part of the "Difficult to cure" album. This songs has a fine melody, with a polyphonic chorus. "Stranger in a strange land" is not a great composition, although the vocal line is good again. Also "Don't waste my time" is a moderate composition: the theme is repeated too often. 
On side 2 there are four tracks, firstly the titletrack, it rocks fine and has good lyrics (politicians and rockmusicians drive in a Cadillac, while the poor and the fans can't permit themselves this). "Fortune teller" starts weak, but the solo at the end brings this track to a climax."Get away" get a funky underground. Vocals are not that interesting, but the solos are great. The last song is "Headliner", which is from 1977. Typical example of USA-hardrock. For fans of Turner is "Cadillac", just like "0ne night stand", compulsory stuff because the singer of Rainbow gives us some great vocals here. Musically it's less interesting. On the inside cover we get on one side all the lyrics and on the other side black & white photos of the members of Fandango. M.S.G. ONE NIGHT AT BUDOKAN Chrysalis 301 929-420 In Japan they release many live-albums, exclusively for Japan only and for sale overhere for very much money in import shops. It all started with Purple's "Made in Japan", who was supposed originally released only in Japan. The Japanese version has also another cover. The photos of 'our' version were shot in the Rainbow Theatre in London. Some live albums got, by popular import demand, released overhere months later. This happened to Purple's "Last concert in Japan", Santana's "Lotus" and live-albums of Bob Dylan and Cheap Trick. But not everything get released overhere, like Ian Gillan's double "live at Budokan" from 1977. So it happened again that a lot of people bought this double "Budokan set" of MSG for a price between 60 and 70 guilders. Sure, it was worth the pain, but you feel screwed when this album is in the shops for less than half the price you payed. 
"One night at Budokan" was recorded on 12 August 1981, some weeks before the release of "MSG 2", which makes the announcement of Barden a bit annoying, he introduces the news songs every time as "a song from the new album coming out very soon". About the album I can be brief: it's one of the best live-albums ever released. Like the songs sound overhere, they should have been on the studio album.All the highlights are present. From the first album we get "Armed and ready", "Cry for the nations", "Victim of i11usion", "Into the arena" and "Lost horizons", that gets preliminarily a brilliant intro with the name "Courvoisier concerto". From the second album we hear "Attack of the mad axeman", "But I want more", "On and on", "Never trust a stranger" (this time a good version), "Let sleeping dogs lie" (marvellous) and (the encore) "Are you ready to rock" with the usual singalong. The only new song (well, new) is UF0's "Doctor Doctor", still this is a bit of a letdown. The record gets opened (pretty long) with music of Wagner. We hear a theme repeated frequently Don Airey used in his solo of "Lost in Hollywood". This double album fits in the row of best live albums ever along with "Made in Japan" and "On Stage". The slight imperfection is forgotten if you know that Schenker recorded this album on one night only. Still one remark: pity they left out Cozy's drumsolo. RAINBOW STRAIGHT BETWEEN THE EYES Polydor 2391 542 The sixth Rainbow studio-album was released on Ritchie's 37th birthday. You never know what to expect of Blackmore, so I had no expectations at all, altho I didn't expect that many big changes compared to "Difficult to cure". I wrote at the end of my review of "DTC": "My final conclusion is that this Rainbow-album is the most diversity ever. A complete record, possible the LAST Rainbow album ever?" Well, "Straight between the eyes" took away all my doubts, I had in 1981. Firstly the cover. Polydor told me something else, but it turned out that was the cover of the first single. It's again an (old-fashioned style) drawn cover, this time by one Jeff Cummins, under the direction of the Hipgnosis-team, wo also was responsible for the cover of "DTC". The idea of the cover is from Ritchie (Coverconcept: Mr. B). An agressive cover, the rainbow returns (inconspicuous tho). On the back we get a nice quiz: which eyes belong to which member. And all lyrics are enclosed. 
Everyone should know this record by now, so I won't describe the songs, only the facts that stand out. The most striking is that this album is not a logical continuation of "DTC". On the vocal point maybe, but musically they, and especially Blackmore, get a bit more back to the past. The tempo and aggression of "Death alley driver" made me think back to "Highway star". The building of the guitarsolo (again Blackmore on his best) and the organsolo (fine introduction by Rosenthal) and the tempo-stop in between the solos remind me to Purple in their peak. About "Stonecold" opinions are very different.When I heard it the first time, I couldn't realize this was Rainbow. Blackmore has the guts for it. It very commercial, and the more you hear it, the more you see it grow. The chorus is very catching. Is this the singlehit Blackmore's lookin' for all that time. It sounds very much like Foreigner. The first tones of "Bring on the night" are a bit strange, but the rest of the song sounds like Rainbow of 4 or 5 years ago. The fighter jet effect before every chorus is a gimmick that might point to another single to be released. The melody is good. "Tite squeeze" sounds too much like "L.A Connection", both the tempo and composition. "Tearing out my heart" is a jewel, Joe's vocals are very emotional. The changes from soft to loud are marvellous again. Ritchie exceed himself almost in the solo. Side two opens with the simple "Power". The riff is repeated too often, and reminds me of "You really got me". Great for the headbangers: straight forward rock, too simple for me though. A mysterious intro opens "MISS Mistreated". This is not "Mistreated" part 2, like many expected, Ritchie already did that with "Love's no friend" (Especially the live arrangement). Blackmore keep soloing in the end over the much repeated title, in which Bob also has a strong part. The keyboardline in the verses give the song an extra dimension. "Rockfever" is again straight forward rock, but with more depth than "Power". This is definitely a Blackmore riff again. Finally we get the climax called "Eyes of fire", Ritchie uses again turkish scales (like we heard him use before in "Stargazer" and "Gates of Babylon"). It's mystical and we missed that quite a while. Turner's voice sounds sometimes a bit like Dio. The double-bassdrum of Bob we hear at the right times. The orchestra (score by Rosenthal) is more emphatic present than in "Gates" or "Stargazer". Blackmore could have done a better solo at the end of the song. We're not used to this of him on a studio album. Also a pity they just fade away the song at the end. Still, it's a classy piece. "Straight between the eyes" is recorded in Le Studio in Morin Heights in Canada. Mr. B. can't find the ideal studio obviously just like the ideal line-up. In the same studio Rush recorded "Moving pictures". Just like Rush, Rainbow was assisted by Robbie Whelan. The production was (ofcourse) by Roger, who has given this album a much heavier sound than "DTC". His bass is done very well. The production is not that clean anymore and that's an improvement. 
The best progress though is Joe Lynn Turner. When he got involved in Rainbow they were already busy recording "DTC" and it was at that point difficult to judge his contribution to the band. Now it appears he's grown very much. His voice sounds full and not forced: Joe sings and that's a relief after all the heavy metal-roaring we hear lately from other bands. He also has written all the lyrics. The subject is often love, but not in the way Coverdale does it. Bob Rondinelli is also totally settled, I like him as much as Powell.I can't say much about David Rosenthal, his role is limited and he can do a brief solo. I'm curious if his part in the live show will be as convincing as Airey did it. Blackmore is still going strong, his solos are not as formal as on the last two albums. He sounds 'mean' and can end a solo abrupt which is only good. "SBTE" is not become the American album I was afraid for. Ritchie picks up where he left with "Long live rock'n'roll". The end of the rainbow I feared last year is not to come yet. "SBTE" is a real Rainbow album and not a Blackmore-album, despite the many guitarsolos. Who will be the next member to leave? I really don't know. Gerrit
